You have gotta see this.... just too cool not to share.
« on: February 20, 2011, 04:41:43 PM »
One of my flying buddy's is building a plane and you have got to see what he did with the covering.

He put yellow on one side, red on the other and when the plane pops up over the top have your camera's ready.
The wing panel will change colors right before your eyes.

Yellow and Red make Orange!

Is that going to look cool or what?

Never seen this done before.

Now that is pretty cool! I have just about all of the transparent colors, could make some pretty neat looking planes going off of his idea-thank you!

Paul,

Free Flighter's have done that for a long time for visibility. I do my wings red on top and black or blue on the bottom (tissue) and in the sun the wing turns purple.

Yea, I thought maybe something like this might have been done before, but it was brand new to me.

Like I use to say.... I wish I knew everything you old timers have forgotten about this hobby. I would know tons more then I do now. ;D
